IDLE AIR CONTROL (IAC) VALVE
ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. INSPECT IAC VALVE OPERATION
(a) Initial conditions:

Engine at normal operating temperature

Idle speed set correctly

Transmission in neutral position
(b) Using SST, connect terminals TE1 and E1 of the DLC1.
SST 09843-18020
(c) After engine rpm is kept at 900 - 1,300 rpm for 5 seconds,
check that it returns to idle speed.
If the rpm operation is not as specified, check the IAC valve, wir-
ing and ECM.
(d) Remove the SST from the DLC1.
SST 09843-18020
2. INSPECT IAC VALVE RESISTANCE
NOTICE:
ºColdº and ºHotº in the following sentences express the temper-
ature of the coils themselves. ºColdº is from -10°C (14°F) to 50°C
(122°F) and ºHotº is from 50°C (122°F) to 100°C (212°F).
(a) Disconnect the IAC valve connector.
(b) Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between ter-
minal +B and other terminals (RSC, RSO).
Resistance:
Cold17.0 - 24.5 W
Hot21.5 - 28.5 W
If resistance is not as specified, replace the IAC valve.
(c) Reconnect the IAC valve connector.

EFI MAIN RELAY
INSPECTION
1. REMOVE EFI MAIN RELAY (Marking: EFI MAIN)
LOCATION: In the engine compartment relay box.
2. INSPECT EFI MAIN RELAY CONTINUITY
(a) Using an ohmmeter, check that there is continuity be-
tween terminals 86 and 85.
If there is no continuity, replace the relay.
(b) Check that there is no continuity between terminals 87
and 30.
If there is continuity, replace the relay.
3. INSPECT EFI MAIN RELAY OPERATION
(a) Apply battery voltage across terminals 86 and 85.
(b) Using an ohmmeter, check that there is continuity be-
tween terminals 87 and 30.
If there is no continuity, replace the relay.
4. REINSTALL EFI MAIN RELAY

FUEL CUT RPM
INSPECTION
1. WARM UP ENGINE
Allow the engine to warm up to normal operating temperature.
2. CONNECT TOYOTA HAND-HELD TESTER OR OBDII
SCAN TOOL
(a) Remove the fuse cover on the instrument panel.
(b) Connect the TOYOTA hand-held tester or OBDII scan
tool to the DLC3.
(c) Please refer to the TOYOTA hand-held tester or OBDII
scan tool operator's manual for futher details.
3. INSPECT FUEL CUT OFF PRM
(a) Increase the engine speed to at least 2,500 rpm.
(b) Use a sound scope to check for injector operating noise.
(c) Check that when the throttle lever is released, injector op-
eration noise stops momentarily and then resumes.
HINT:
Measure with the A/C OFF.
Fuel return rpm: 900 rpm
4. DISCONNECT TOYOTA HAND- HELD TESTER OR

COOLANT
INSPECTION
1. CHECK ENGINE COOLANT LEVEL AT RADIATOR RESERVOIR
The engine coolant level should be between the ºLOWº and ºFULLº lines.
If low, check for leaks and add engine coolant up to the ºFULLº line, ºwhen the engine is cold.º
2. CHECK ENGINE COOLANT QUALITY
(a) Remove the radiator cap.
CAUTION:
To avoid the danger of being burned, do not remove the radiator cap while the engine and radiator
are still hot, as fluid and steam can be blown out under pressure.
(b) There should not be any excessive deposits of rust or scale around the radiator cap or radiator filler
hole, and the coolant should be free from oil.
If excessively dirty, replace the coolant.
(c) Reinstall the radiator cap.
